Bill Bailey is performing for an extra date in Northampton after tickets for his first night sold out quickly.

Limboland is one of the musical comedian’s most successful live shows ever. After a sell-out five week run in the West End, and a packed tour to Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand, Bill has added extra shows to his schedule including one more night in Northampton. The original June dates at Royal & Derngate sold out but tickets are now available for an additional performance on Tuesday July 5.

The gap between how we imagine our lives to be and how they really are is the subject of Bill’s new show Limboland. From his countless global travels, he recounts the saga of a disastrous family trip to Norway to see the Northern Lights. He rails against a world that doesn’t match up to our expectations and contemplates the true nature of happiness. And no Bill Bailey show would be complete without music, so there is Bill’s version of the protest song, a heart-rending country and western ballad played on a Bible, and a downbeat version of Happy Birthday.

In 2010 Bill Bailey toured the Scottish Highlands with Dandelion Mind, where he enjoyed performing to small intimate crowds, before his huge open air homecoming gig at Bristol’s Ashton Gate Stadium and an international tour of Australia and New Zealand.
